There is a patch to notification-daemon to play sound on events with gstreamer. Of course it needs support for caching right now and for selection of different sounds, but it can be considered already as a sound server. Thanks a lot to lack for writing the patch. http://trac.galago-project.org/ticket/111 _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
